Gambling impacts families; but leave it up to states
Quayle “has very serious concerns about the impact gambling has on the American family” but ultimately believes the decision is up to individual states, his campaign says.
All Americans have the right and the duty to maintain respect for our flag and prevent its desecration. Indeed, we did this throughout our history, until judges needlessly interfered ten years ago. In order to protect the dignity of the American flag, I
support a constitutional amendment to safeguard it against desecration. Passage of this amendment will demonstrate that the heart of America still honors the flag, respect what it stands for, and remembers the brave men and women who died for it.

Religion is indispensable; against “all state, no church.”
Quayle spoke critically of a “legal aristocracy” that has turned separation of church and state into “all state, no church.” A President, he said, must state clearly that the most important qualifications for the federal bench is not where the nominees
went to law school, “but whether they are well qualified, show respect for the Constitution, and appreciate the indispensable role of religion and morality in our society.”
